All I can see is what I fried
And all the world in your black eyes
I'll run in circles all the time
I'll gather up all that is mine
Into the room inside my head
The walls are black, the roof is red
and fiery, like a volcano
I wear it like a massive halo
And this pretty speckled lenght of twine
That's wrapped around your neck is mine
A ruby rose, stiffed and froze is what I give to you

If I could taste your salty head
and pick your dead hair from my eyes
let you smell the sweet despise
Those peaks and troughs, guts for a valley
Are dead sea in my back alley
How tall and wide you have to get
How big and dark and badly lit
And if you said I did, would you believe me
If I showed you gold, would you see through me
And if tomorrow didn't come
Would you

I'll run in circles all the time
I'll gather up all that is mine into this room
Inside my head, the walls are black
The roof is red.
